Accessibility notes

  • Ensure very high contrast between neon colors and #1A0D2A background for all text and interactive elements.
  • Avoid using #6A3DAF for small body text on darker purple backgrounds; aim for significant luminance difference.
  • Test combinations for color blindness, especially with the various shades of purple, to ensure distinguishability.
